Mapper.ai

Mapper is building the world’s largest repository of up-to-date, machine-readable base maps.

Mapping is a lynchpin of autonomous vehicle technology, and
Mapper has created a globally scalable ecosystem for on-demand creation,
validation and maintenance of centimeter-accurate maps. Mapper's cutting-edge
technology allows it to collect map data with a 100% coverage guarantee on
public roads with updates as often as daily.

Mapper was founded in 2016 by Dr. Nikhil Naikal, a robotics
expert from UC Berkeley who was part of Carnegie Mellon’s 2007 Darpa Grand
Challenge Team, and Dr. Alonso Patron, a computer vision expert from Oxford
University. Drs. Naikal and Patron were previously colleagues at FlyBy Media
Inc. (acquired by Apple). Together they have recruited a team of robotics,
machine learning, hardware and systems engineers and executives who formerly
worked at ride-sharing and automotive companies.
